Danilo was sent off five minutes later after stepping on Soteldo, who was walking towards the goal.

In the 29th minute of the final stage, it was Gabriel Menino’s turn to receive the yellow card. Gustavo Gómez, called up to the Paraguayan national team, also received a card in the final minutes. He should already be out of the confrontation because of the friendly with the national team.

Weverton, who will be with the Brazilian team for the friendlies against Ghana and Tunisia, should also not arrive in time for the confrontation. Marcelo Lomba is his immediate replacement.

Without the starting midfielder duo and the immediate reserve, Verdão has only Atuesta and Fabinho as options available in the sector, as Jailson is still in the recovery phase of a knee injury.

Coach Abel Ferreira received a red card and will also miss Palmeiras in the next round.
